Why would you DO such a thing?

Everything that goes wrong around here is my fault. I accept that. Afterall, I'm the mom. Who else would you blame? I don't even mind. But I think today we reached a new low.
Tackler's special cup (the one Tante gave him for Christmas) was dirty. I don't know what was in it but it had specs of something. He came to me, cup in hand, whine in the voice and demanded,
"I didn't WANT dirt in my cup".
Oh how I wish I had the huff and contempt on tape.
Why would his first instinct tell him that I purposely PUT dirt in his cup?
I told him I thought he wanted it that way and I worked really hard to get him that dirt. Would he have preferred bugs?
Oh wait. That's a different story. I can't believe I haven't told that story yet. Make sure I do. =)

And speaking of me cleaning, I am still working on the iRobot debate.
My darling husband, as an argument against them said "They are fine for people too lazy to do the work themselves". My friend and I looked at him and said, in unison "Du-uh. That's the point".
I think Lazy is a tad harsh.
I sweep my kitchen floor on an at least daily basis and yet Mr. Neatnik can still walk in and find crumbs. I just want to do something else with my life besides sweep and vacuum.

It's been a whole week since I did something worthy of posting on
my other blog. Isn't that proof that I need a robot to sweep my kitchen?
If I could find a robot to clean my bathroom I would happily be too lazy to do that job too. It would leave me more time to put dirt in my son's cup.
